Friday’s favorite things

I was doing some blog reading while waiting for the hardwoods to dry and came across Rachel’s blog … she hosts a weekly meme called (Friday) Favorite Things. I can’t commit to a regular (Friday) Favorite Thing post, so I’m not going to link up. But I did like the idea of listing some of my favorite things, so I’m going to steal borrow the idea. Nothing really new … but I thought it was a fun look at the things that bring me joy.

I would be remiss if I didn’t start my list with:I heart those little feet … and all the rest of them, too! And their mama & daddy! ;-)

And of course, those of you who have been reading very long know that I’ve got to include:The beach at Hilton Head … our very most favorite place to go … if it weren’t for those little ones (see above), we would have retired there. We’re already talking about a trip back next spring.

And:Of course, had we retired to Hilton Head (see above), we would have missed out on the snow! Not that we normally get as much as in this photo.

We Nana's love those little feet. Put on a Hilton Head screen saver and some Jimmy Buffet for the winter.

It was so hot here this summer that we didn't go to the water once and I'm about miles from the ocean. I do enjoy just watching the waves too. Now I'll look forward to going to Mi. for Christmas and giving my girls and boys some hugs.

I love the feet. When my grands were small, we had an area with built in shoe racks as you came in the back door. From the shoe rack all the way up the wall, each child had a set of foot prints. We covered their feet with finger paint and held them up so they could smoosh them on the wall. Today, I still have them take their shoes off for pictures!

I'm Nana of 4 adorable Ts; Mom of a lovely woman who happens to be my BFF; wife of a sweet, sweet man; daughter of the Living King.
I love to quilt, spend time with my grandkids, read, watch Cardinals baseball and Blues hockey, bike, travel (especially to the beach).
